Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists for Diabetic Kidney Disease [PDF]
Ten years ago, I presented an outline for a study aiming to prevent diabetic kidney disease (DKD), with early intervention in subjects with type 2 diabetes and high risk for DKD assessed by a urinary proteomic–based biomarker, at Kidney Week hoping for positive feedback.

Inappropriate activation of the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) plays a significant role in developing hypertension, the development of cardiac pathological changes, and chronic kidney disease (CKD), where death related to cardiovascular (CV) causes is ...

Renal function, electrolytes, and congestion monitoring in heart failure. [PDF]
Congestion, renal function, and electrolyte imbalance (particularly potassium) are common problems in the management of the complex multi-morbid patient with heart failure (HF).

Using human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs)‐derived neuronal model, Tian and colleagues reveal that voltage‐gated calcium channels Cav1.2 and Cav1.3, and their mediated calcium ion influx, are essential for early morphogenesis of human neuronal development, while ECEL1 underlies human neuronal functional developmental maturation through CALM3 ...

Background: Previous studies have shown that aldosterone antagonists have a proteinuria-lowering effect in patients with proteinuria and progressive proteinuric disease not adequately controlled by the use of angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs ...

Objective: Carbonyl reductase 1 (Cbr1), a recently discovered contributor to tissue glucocorticoid metabolism converting corticosterone to 20β-dihydrocorticosterone (20β-DHB), is upregulated in adipose tissue of obese humans and mice and may contribute ...

Mineralocorticoid Receptor Activation and Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonist Treatment in Cardiac and Renal Diseases [PDF]
Cardiac and renal diseases remain major challenges for healthcare systems in developed countries and commonly coexist, with a disorder in the heart or kidney often leading to secondary dysfunction or injury in the other organ. Indeed, the term cardiorenal syndrome has been introduced to describe the broad spectrum of disease involving both the heart ...

As antiretroviral therapy (ART) prolongs lifespans, people with HIV (PWH) face a new syndemic: Cardiovascular‐Kidney‐Metabolic (CKM) syndrome. Yet CKM in PWH is poorly characterized. Inflammation, complex pharmacokinetic (PK) alterations, ART‐associated metabolic effects, and gut dysbiosis amplify risk. Managing CKM increases medication burden, thereby

New clinical opportunities for mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists: focus on antifibrotic effects
Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists have been successfully used for many years to treat patients with primary hyperaldosteronism, refractory arterial hypertension and chronic heart failure. The increased interest in this drug in recent years is due to
